Hi, we're encountering inconsistent results when using a date filter to compare the current period to the previous one, specifically with the "This Month" option. When we select the same month using a static date range, it works as expected, but the static approach is not a solution for us because it lacks flexibility and it's obviously static. Example 1: Failing with "This Month" Filter Example 2: Working with Static Period Could you help us please ?

Hi Alexandre, it seems the problem here is that the previous function is not meant to be used with a static date period when the insight is viewed by date and grouped by Month, Quarter or Year as the resulting insight may be misleading. The reason for this is that the data for previous periods are calculated and displayed based on the actual number of days in the original period. This is also mentioned in our documentation bellow: https://www.gooddata.com/docs/cloud/create-visualizations/filter/time-over-time/

@Michael Ullock Is there any non ESM version of the Tiger SDK ? We can't import ESM in our backend code and we can't migrate to esm.
Commonjs Is still the default in nodejs.
